How long will it take to completely get rid of IPv4 or will it happen at all?

Quite a few folks actually.  (the 802.5 & 802.4 specs)….
This is kind of like asking when we will stop using ethernet framing (ethernet was designed for a 3Mbps transmission rate)
yet we are deploying 100Gbps networks.  Still stuck on that 1500byte limitation.  When can we get rid of that?
